8th Annual Campout

Each Summer we host our annual CAMPOUT for our younger nieces and nephews. And each Winter or Spring I realize I never posted the pictures!

We begin the night with PIZZA!

Get all the tents set up!

ENJOY the summer night.

Roll out the CANDY, thanks to good ol' Sadie, (my bike).

"The Feast" kid style!!

Jake created a HUGE outdoor theater on the side of the carriage house,
with speakers on either side.

They watch movies until they can't keep their eyes open!
Always being sure to fit in "The Parent Trap", (THE ORIGINAL)!!

We make mass amounts of POPCORN & SMORES

and live life through the eyes of a child.

It doesn't take a lot to make a child feel special.

A little effort for a lot of memory!!

"Please, let them be little,
'Cause they're only that way for a while."~Billy Dean~

"Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are…Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect Tomorrow. One day I shall dig my nails into the earth, or bury my face in my pillow, or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky and want, more than all the world, your return."
